The national media is always moving on to the next shiny object. So I get that they are slobbering all over Allen. He is getting every piece of grace imaginable.
Mahomes has to have heard this chatter this week. If you listened this week, he’s almost washed up at 26.
Of course, I’m biased. Mahomes saved me from all the losing and playoff disappointments. I think he is in his prime. The best QB in the league. Well on the way down a HOF career.
Media Shiny objects aside, I don’t get this dissing Mahomes. I hope Patrick balls out all over the Bills and his doubters. Not just because I love watching him ball out and my team win….. I want to see him on the field, rub it in the national media faces. [Reply]

#Bills OC Brian Daboll is scheduled to interview for the #Dolphins and #Bears head coaching jobs today, while DC Leslie Frazier will interview with Miami today and Chicago later this week, per sources. Big meetings after a big win.

Beating the crap out of KC earlier in the season. KC shouldn't have any problems finding motivation for this game. We'll see if they can find a way to win it. [Reply]

Bias. Recency, and East coast, specifically. These media twats watch their favorite team and then clips/highlights of other teams. They maybe go to stat sheets, but for the most part regurgitate tired biased takes. Lazy.
Then you have the click-baity shitheads that spew hot takes to garner attention. Those would be your Skip Bayless and Steven A Smiths of the sports media world. Nobody takes their noise seriously, but they are oft-repeated by their lazy "cousins". [Reply]

Not really. How many times has it happened?
I know the Chiefs played the Raiders twice in 1990 but I can’t remember it happening again? I’d love to see how many times a team has come into Arrowhead twice.

Maybe but the outlier is the Bills had a laughable schedule...they played TWO offenses ranked in the top 14 in 17 games...and they are talking about having the #1 defense...well no shit.
Like I alluded to earlier...the fact Buffalo went 6-4 to end the season is not a good sign. They were 2-4 from Nov. 7 to Dec 12th.
They pissed away the easiest path to HFA in recent memory...3 months ago and looking at their remaining schedule...I didn't think there was any realistic path for KC to land the #2 seed.
When they lose on Sunday...they can only blame themselves. [Reply]
